We source high-quality goat hair through legally regulated markets in China, where the hair is obtained as a byproduct of the food industry.

No animals are harmed solely for brush production. All materials are sourced and processed in compliance with local laws, with a strong emphasis on responsible and sustainable use.

We primarily use two premium grades of goat hair:

Xi Guang Feng (细光锋) — known for fine tips, exceptional softness, and gentle flexibility. It offers a smooth feel on skin and refined blending for a more natural-looking finish.

Zhong Guang Feng (中光峰) — slightly firmer and more resilient, designed for better control and steady performance. It still feels soft, while helping with clean pickup and consistent blending.

Both grades provide excellent powder pickup, smooth blending, and comfortable application — chosen based on the brush’s purpose and the finish we want to achieve.

Yes. Our brushes are designed to be gentle and comfortable, including for sensitive skin.

However, as skin sensitivity varies, we recommend a patch test before full use if you are highly sensitive.

To maintain performance and longevity:

• Clean brushes every 1–2 weeks using a mild cleanser or baby shampoo
• Rinse with lukewarm water, avoiding the metal ferrule
• Gently reshape and lay flat to air dry
• Avoid blow dryers, direct sunlight, or soaking

Proper care will keep your brushes soft, hygienic, and long-lasting.

Pure goat hair brushes are best suited for powder-based products.

For liquid or cream formulas, we recommend using brushes made with synthetic fibers or blended hair, which are easier to clean and more durable.

Blended brushes offer a balance of performance and durability:

• Improved shape retention
• Better compatibility with creams and liquids
• Easier cleaning
• Longer lifespan

This approach allows us to design brushes for specific makeup needs without compromising quality.
